Don’t Leave Your Health at the Door

Whether you are a busy mom or a mompreneur, you know that many people depend on you. Regardless if you are sick, the show must go on. But don’t underestimate how your well-being powers your effectiveness at home and work.

Good health helps you think clearly to problem-solve and be present for those you love. Your health is your business locomotive—from giving you the bling you need to nail presentations and courage to make scary, rejection-laden sales calls to providing you with the energy you need for everything else.

Despite preventative efforts, the environment and genetics play critical roles in your health. Continue to embrace a wholistic approach in collaboration with your traditional med doctor by searching alternative and complementary medicine options.

Significant research backs traditional medicine, and the health system scrutinizes licensed physicians more than unlicensed alternative med practitioners. Realize that politics and economic power, like with influential pharmaceutical companies, can eclipse safe and effective alternative approaches.

Research and look at alternative approaches, especially those being used in alternative medicine-friendly places like Mexico and Europe. To prevent interaction issues, always communicate with your doctor about non-traditional approaches you would like to include.

Christina this is such an important post. As someone who keeps a crazy schedule and is rarely — if ever — sick, I credit those “soul therapies” for most of what keeps me healthy. This is a great reminder that caring for ourselves is a big part of caring for our families.
